Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Was recently going back and looking at the 2014 season and came to the realization Cyler Miles probably had the weirdest career of a Husky I can remember in my lifetime.
-Comes out of Colorado as a high four-star and commits to UW when Sark is flying high at 7-6 (sidenote, has UW ever gotten a player out of Colorado that hasn't been a bust or head case?)
-Turns down a hot pitch from USC and signs as the second QB in the same class with a local four-star QB
-Is immediately declared a future minor savior by a lot of doogs
-Steps in for Keith Price a bit, looks good, and many want him to replace Price
-Assaults Seahawk fans after the Super Bowl, almost gets kicked off the team
-Wins the starting job and is really bad
-Retires from football and actually retires with eligibility. I feel like you have players now who have to retire because they lose a limb and still find a way to just play somewhere else, but he legit quit football.
-My dad points out at some point that he looks like the Grinch Who Stole Christmas
Other weird careers that crossed my mind - Greg Walker, Greg Carothers, EJ Savannah, James Johnson, Andrew Hudson - mostly considering guys who were in the program for at least a few years.

Rosengarten on the current roster seems to have some promise on the OL.
Also, I thought Kevin King was one of the worst players I had ever seen playing safety under Sark. Then he ended up as an early second round pick at corner. Turns out coaching matters.
